What to remember when knitting booties

Choosing yarn

Before you start knitting, you need to choose the right yarn. It's better to give preference specially designed yarn for children: it is hypoallergenic, natural and undergoes stricter quality control. If you can’t find yarn intended for children, then choose natural threads made from cotton or wool.

You can choose any color: for boys - all shades of blue and cyan, for girls - pink-red-crimson, but psychologists recommend yellow, green, orange colors and their warm shades– they are universal, and kids love these colors the most. Choose the thickness of the threads according to the season, but even in winter, the yarn for booties should be soft, and not thick and rough.

Determine the correct size

Trace the baby's foot on a blank sheet of paper and measure the length and width. Add 1.5 cm to the results obtained and get the size of booties that will fit the leg loosely. Typically, in newborns and babies up to 3 months, the foot is 9 cm, from 3 to 6 months - 10 cm, from six months to 9 months - 11.5 cm, from 9 months to a year - 12-13 cm.

When knitting booties need to remember:

• booties must be of the correct shape;
• have a loose fit;
• for newborns and children up to six months, booties should be seamless or with seams facing outward;
• the yarn must be natural and resistant to repeated washing.

For knitting seamless booties you will need:

• knitting needles No. 3 – 5 pcs.;

• children's yarn 50 g/150 m.

Knitting cuffs

Knitting a toe on booties

Knitting a side

1. To knit the sole, you need to connect all the last loops in the rows that you knit with stockinette stitch into one loop with the edge loop.
   
   
2. Knit until all the stitches on the side needles are completed.
   
   
3. When the loops are over, transfer the remaining ones to one knitting needle: alternating removal - one from the first knitting needle, one from the second, and so on until everyone is on one.
   
   

Knit the second one in the same way, and when it is ready, use a hook to crochet a chain of air loops 40-45 cm long, or take a ribbon and pull it under the cuffs. This is necessary for better fixation on the leg. If desired, the booties can be decorated or initially knitted, combining several colors.

When the child is older, you can choose models of booties without laces and even knit footwear with knitting needles.

For knitting these marshmallow booties you will need:

• yarn of contrasting colors;

• stocking needles No. 3.

1. Cast on 25 stitches using a thread that will be the base color. When casting on the loops, leave the tip of the thread 25-30 cm, we will use it to sew the booties.
   
   
   
   
2. Knit the fabric for about 45-50 rows - garter stitch - - this will be the back part of the product.
3. Cast off 10 stitches in the next row and in the middle of the row, attach a thread of the second color, finishing the row with it, only with facial loops.
   
   
4. Turn the piece and knit three more rows with the attached thread, using stockinette stitch only.
5. Return to the thread of the base color, which was pulled along the side, and knit 4 rows with the following stitch: 1st row - front, 2nd row - front, 3rd row - purl, 4th row - front.
   
   
6. Move to the second color thread and work 4 rows in stockinette stitch.
7. So you need to alternate knitting with different threads until you have 8 stripes of an additional color and 7 of the base color.
8. When this is done, bind off all the loops and leave a tail of thread for stitching.
   
   

We have the base for the booties, now we have to assemble (sew) it. All We perform actions on the wrong side products.

The easiest to work with are booties with a round sole and one seam; let’s look at how to knit them for newborns with a description.

Moreover, there are patterns for knitting children's shoes two or four knitting needles , the choice of size will depend on:

• yarn thickness,
• season,
• the main thing depends on the chosen model.

If you are used to knitting crochet , then the Internet is full of such samples.

Very important: pairs of shoes for newborns should not have seams, or their number should be reduced to a minimum. Connect the existing joints with satin ribbons or use a knitted seam, as shown in the picture. A baby should feel comfortable in new clothes.

1. Booties can be knitted “for going out”, that is, elegant, or for every day. You can sew a sole made of leather or leatherette to the finished knitting, then your little one can stomp around the yard in such shoes. It is not recommended to use small parts to decorate booties, which the baby can tear off or swallow.
2. Of course, threads for knitting children's clothing should consist of natural materials– acrylic, cotton, wool. Each season has its own yarn: in winter - wool and acrylic for insulation, in summer - cotton for normal thermoregulation in hot weather.
3. Be careful when choosing wool threads - many models can prick and thus cause irritation.
4. Sellers in handicraft stores do not advise purchasing angora wool yarn for knitting children's clothing. Small children constantly put their hands in their mouths, so it is important to avoid getting angora into the mouth through the baby's wet hands. Merino wool is better suited for these purposes. Even children with allergies can safely wear items made from acrylic yarn.

The most suitable accessories for decorating booties can be:

• satin braid,
• applications,
• lace,
• beads,
• embroidery.

• The decorations must be attached very firmly so that the child cannot tear them off and inadvertently choke.
• When choosing threads, check with your consultant how strong the yarn is and how it behaves when washed and worn.
• Try to knit bright booties - this will allow the child to explore the world in colorful colors, instill a taste for beauty and influence the formation of character.

Marshmallow booties: knitting instructions

“Marshmallows” look very elegant and at first glance it seems that they are knitted using a very complex technique, but this is not so. Below is detailed diagram and a description of knitting such booties on two knitting needles, which even a beginner can handle.

• To do this, prepare two colors of thread in contrasting colors.
• Cast on 45 stitches using dark thread.
• Knit the next eight rows in garter stitch - this means that only the front rows need to be knitted all the time. Before starting this stage, you can insert a thread - an elastic band so that the cuff of the finished bootie stretches well.

In order for the knitted fabric to have smooth edges, remove the first loop without knitting, and always knit the last loop purl-wise.

• If there is an elastic band, cut it and tie it tightly into knots, knit another 8 rows with just yarn.
• Now cut the burgundy thread.
• Such booties can be knitted with or without a seam; in the latter case, the baby’s foot will be most comfortable. Insert a lighter thread.
• Move the initial 15 stitches onto the needle you are working with, and continue to knit the other 15 stitches in garter stitch with a light thread.
• Unfold the knitting and repeat the same action, knitting the last light stitch with the darker stitch together.

Remember, if you are working on the front side, knit two loops with a purl stitch, and if on the wrong side, then knit.

• Continue knitting until there are only 15 loops left on the knitting needle with a light thread, the dark loops should be hidden by knitting. Close the knitting and the bootie heel is ready.
• Count the middle of the 15 closed loops, from here start casting on the front loops to the elastic band, there should be 16 loops on the knitting needle.
• Using a light colored thread, knit 4 rows of stockings.
• Then, using a dark-colored thread, perform stocking stitch again, only knitting it the other way around - from the inside out.
• Change the thread to a light one. Knit according to this pattern until you get 6 stripes of dark color, the last strip of light color should remain, bind off the loops.
• Fold the bootie as shown in the picture and sew the stripes to the heel.
• Use thread to pull the top of the booties together and secure firmly.
• Decorate the finished bootie with a bow or pompom, it’s so easy to hide all the working moments in knitting.

1. Marshmallow BOOTS FOR BOYS AND GIRLS UP TO ONE YEAR OF ONE

One of the most pressing topics for many mothers is how to knit comfortable and appropriately sized children's clothing for your baby with your own hands. Some mothers begin knitting clothes and shoes for their newborn baby during pregnancy. Our needlewomen enjoy knitting or crocheting charming caps or hats, beautiful blouses, touching boots for tiny feet, as well as many other types of children's clothing.

We all know very well that even a very small baby, who cannot yet walk or crawl on the floor, is nevertheless constantly in motion. The baby often waves his little arms, twists his legs and spins in the crib or in the stroller. Therefore, socks often slip off the legs of a restless baby, since the legs catch on each other, and the baby can easily reach them with his hands. Making the elastic on your socks tighter is not an option, as the elastic will pinch the leg and leave a mark on the delicate skin. An excellent way out of this situation is to knit marshmallow booties without a seam.

Yarn Nako Bambino (red) and Alize Softi (white), garter stitch - all knit stitches.
We put 28 loops on the knitting needles with a red thread and knit 1 row.

And we begin to knit the soles of our booties. To do this, we make additions in every second row:

1 row - selvedge, 1 yarn over, knit 12, 1 yarn over, knit 2, 1 yarn over, knit 12, 1 yarn over, selvedge;

3rd row - selvedge, 1 yarn over, knit 13, 1 yarn over, 4 knits, 1 yarn over, knit 13, 1 yarn over, selvedge;

5th row - edging, 1 yarn over, knit 14, 1 yarn over, 6 knits, 1 yarn over, 14 knits, 1 yarn over, edging;

Row 7 - edging, 1 yarn over, knit 15, 1 yarn over, 8 knits, 1 yarn over, 15 knits, 1 yarn over, edging;

Rows 2,4,6,8 - knit stitches.

And we knit 4 more rows with facial loops. This is what the sole looks like:

Change the thread to white and knit 4 more rows.

And let's start with the toe of the booties. To do this, it is necessary in every second row in the middle of the fabric (middle 4 loops) to decrease the loops as follows - remove 1 st, knit the next stitch and pull it through the removed loop, knit 2 together. Decrease until there are 30 stitches left on the needle.


And knit another 4-6 rows of faces. loops.

Change the thread again to red and knit 6 rows. Next we knit 1 row with knit stitches, 2nd row with knit stitches, 3rd row with knit stitches. And another 10-12 rows with facial stitches.

At this level we close the loops. We sew the booties at the back and along the sole.
That's all! The booties are ready.

Thank you for stopping by.))))))) Good luck!!!
